Somehing Matters Again....

Two people, including an 81-year-old woman, were shot in the city's Gresham neighborhood in what police say was a drive-by shooting.

The victims were outside when a white SUV approached them around 5 p.m. Friday in the 7800-block of South Carpenter, police said, when someone inside the vehicle allegedly started shooting

The woman, Iola Burress, suffered a gunshot wound to the wrist and stomach. Her 34-year-old grandson, Sylvester Burress, suffered a gunshot wound to the hip, police said. Both were hospitalized and are in stable condition.

This was at a wake for grandma's middle-aged daughter. We're betting she probably wasn't the target. But hey, let's go light up a wake...just in case.

81yr old woman just lost her daughter, back from a wake, and she gets shot. Al, Jesse?!! Anything to say at all? When's the big protest? The marches? Any outrage? Just another day in the hood, I guess. Will spike put this in his movie? The "tell me again how black lives matter" comment is so over-used, but then they come up with another way to astonish us with their complete lack of morals, and we find ourselves using it, yet again.

I am a retired CPD Sgt., who now has a part-time job teaching at a Community College. Fortunately this Institution, because it is a Community College and not an "Elitist" institution of higher Brain Washing, allows me to be honest with my students. When this Hands Up, Don't Shoot nonsense and Black Lives Matter crap started I confronted my students with the facts and the question: "Black Lives Matter?" To Whom? I then showed the stats of how Blacks are the offenders in more than 90% of Black homicides. One of the first things I teach is: "I heard, They say, You know"; all means little in the Real World. Produce the facts. In the Media world of sound bites and political whores who lie, perception becomes reality and perception is manipulated. Stay safe my brothers and sisters, your task is a Vocation not a job. And a Vocation is a calling from God almighty."Baby G"

5/16/2015 06:54:00 PMHeard Garfield ridge is looking to do the same, now that it's divided up by Burke and o Shea madigans boys lets get taxes reduced to pay the off duty guys? Why no VRI overtime here? Because we love our police,pay taxes, respect officers! That would be the reason, they spend over 100 million for extra coppers everyday in areas where most hate police, don't want to be policed, want to sue the police and hurt officers hello wake up taxpayers!

Children,and elderly getting killed! Innocents being murdered, and yet no street protests? sharpton, flaky, jackson where are you at? Let us understand if a police officer in fear of his life or her life shoots a criminal thug massive protests, businesses destroyed, violence everywhere, but the innocent people on the street "black lives matter" your people and you don't bother? Hypocrites! Who pays you guys for appearances? Do you get cash from attorneys? the families? Do you also bring the mobs and pay them to cause violence?

Sharpton you owe how many millions in income tax and your invited to the white house not arrested,not indicted? tell us how "a man of God" you are hypocrits all of them!

Can some active and retired CPD give some suggestions what we regular Chicago citizens can do to contain, reduce this carnage?

What organizations can we, should we join?

I was very impressed by the Chicago Crime Commissions 2012 Gang Book and noted that (I respected) former CPD chief Jody Weiss was briefly the president of the Chicago Crime Commission, but he resigned after a very short time.

I tried to contact Chicago Crime Commission, but had a hard time finding a live person.
